Title: Walksby and Apartment Roomies...
Post by: ScoobyDoo on 2008 November 07, 23:21:36
Is anyone else having problems that only the new roomies (townies) from AL walk by your lots?  I think I've seen only 2 of my regular-playable sims walkby since installing AL.  I removed my downloads folder and they still keep on walking by and I know I've got at least 50% pre-AL sims so you'd think they'd also walkby.

It's not just "only" them, but there sure are a lot of them, so they tend to swamp everything else.

Strange thing is, it seems to be just a select few.  I've made those over so their not so ugly, but still I'd like to see my regulars walking by too.

edit: On community lots, at least those owned ones, I'm getting about 75% pre-AL's and 25% post-AL's sims.  Now if there's a way to get that one residential lots then I wouldn't complain.

Just did some testing on a copied hood.  Everytime an apartment sim would walkby that I haven't modified, I killed it.  I ended up with 21 kills, which got rid of most of them.  (The walkbys became a maze of tombstones  :D ) Then I jotted down the walkers.

Out of 50 walkbys:
15 were original sims.
7 were then killed.  (apart. sims)
the other 28 where walkers which consisted of just 5 sims.

I'm assuming the game isn't using pure random function to decide who goes.  It appears to favor the newer sims a lot more.
